Greek. Norse. Atlantis Discovered. By Dominic Utton The fabled "Lost City" of Atlantis is one of mankind's greatest and most enduring mysteries.

First written of 2,350 years ago by the Greek philosopher Plato in his works the Timaeus and the Critias, the island beneath the sea has fascinated historians, poets, and the public ever since, but has remained tantalisingly hidden, shrouded in myth, legend and exaggeration. However, a new book by acclaimed historian Andrew Collins provides for the first time a clear argument for the civilisation's existence and a pointer to its location. Plato described Atlantis as an empire founded by the sea god Poseidon on a land mass the size of "Libya and Asia put together".

It possessed a thriving capital, with sumptuous palaces, royal courts and harbours constantly receiving vessels from all over the world. Its downfall came when its masters set their sights on conquering the Mediterranean. AND the evidence mounts.

Ankou or Donn was the Celtic personification of Death. Though death often comes unseen, he would also frequently appear as a tall, gaunt or skeletal old man befitted in mourning attire. It is claimed that his head can turn entirely upon his shoulders, and that his eyes are empty black chasms.
Unicorns in History.

Perhaps as long as 5,000 years ago, a group of sailors found skulls belonging to a race of hideous giants whom the ancient Greeks named cyclops.

Dwelling in their mythical land, entrusting the fate of their crops to their evil gods and devouring any humans they could find, these creatures terrified generations of Europeans. Today, relatives of these monsters can still be found — roaming the African savannas or the Indian jungles, or even eating peanuts from the hands of small children in city zoos. In fact, the ancient Greek sailors found elephant skulls. What they mistook for single eye sockets were the nasal openings for the elephants' trunks. Over the centuries, our understanding of mammals, both living and extinct, has improved considerably.
